Reviews, Reminiscences, Essays and Fiction

Though best known as the author of Dracula (1897) Bram Stoker was an important figure in theatre, first as a revered critic in Dublin and later as Henry Irvings business manager at the Lyceum Theatre, London. This collection brings together Stokers theatrical reviews from Dublins Evening Mail, his published essays and interviews on the theatre, selections from Reminiscences of Henry Irving (1906) and one fictional work on the theatre: Snowbound: The Record of a Theatrical Company (1908). The reviews provide important information on the social milieu of Victorian Dublin as well as allowing insights into Stokers early views on politics and sexual proprieties. The material from his time in London reveals his detailed knowledge of all aspects of the theatre and documents his relationships with Irving and Ellen Terry, who arrived at the Lyceum at the same time. This critical edition contains an introduction on Stoker and the theatre, extensive notes on the texts included and an index. It will be of interest to scholars of literature, theatre history, Victorian society and cultural studies.
